Explanation:

If you plot the points on the graph, you notice that the run (change in x) is 3 for each "rise" (change in y) of -1, so the slope is ...

m = rise/run = -1/3

The middle point is on the y-axis, so is the y-intercept.

In slope-intercept form, the equation is ...

y = mx + b . . . . . . where m is the slope (-1/3) and b is the y-intercept (4)

y = -1/3x +4 . . . . equation
